“I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and last.
Blessed are they who do His commandments, that they may have right to
the Tree of Life,
And may enter in through the Gates of the City.
For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers,
and idolaters, and whosoever love and makes a lie.
I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto thee these things in thechurches.
I am the root and offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.
And the Spirit and the Bride say, Come. And let him that hears say,
Come.
And let him that is athirst come, and whosoever will, let him take
the Waters of Life freely.”Revelations 22:13-17

Tree of Life – The subtle system consisting of nadis, chakras and
Sahasrara;

Gates – The very narrow Agnya chakra located at the optic chiasma
where resides the Universal Savior Shri Jesus Christ;

City – The Sahasrara, Thousand-Petalled Lotus, or Kingdom of God;

Churches – “Once there was a single Christian group, Jesus of
Nazareth’s tiny band of twelve apostles; now there are thousands. It
has been estimated that there are some twenty-two thousand separate
and distinct Christian groups around the world.” (Charles Templeton,
Farewell to God, The Canadian Publishers, 1996 p. 130.)

Spirit – GOD-ALMIGHTY, SADASHIVA, ALLAH, YAHWEH — THE FATHER.

Bride – HOLY SPIRIT, ADI SHAKTI, RUH, SHEKINAH — THE MOTHER.

Waters of Life – “. . . water is a very holy thing. . . This is the
time of Aquarius means the Kundalini is made of Divine Water.”- Shri
Mataji Nirmala Devi

One Response to “I am Alpha and Omega”

Hi Peter,
hope you dont mind me replying to an older post,but i thought this was an interesting (Jungian) interpretation of the churches,mentioned in Revelation.
“Each ” church” has a particular sin, each a characteristic flaw in a time of transition to a new belief system, a new level of consciousness. In one town,Ephesus(2:1-7), the people no longer cling to a central belief; “though hast left thy first love.” But to those who overcome their fears and return to their deeper beliefs,” to him that overcometh will i give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God”(2:7).
Another church,Pergamos(2:12-17),is composed of those who may hold to their beliefs inwardly,but are content to sit silently and watch as others do evil.the people of still another city,Thyatira(2:8-29),have listened to a false prophet(Jezebel)and followed her teachings instead of God’s. The congregation of another church,Sardis(3:1-6), with no hope for the future,chose to live only for the day and turned to dissolution.Another city,Laodicea(3:14-22),in some ways the most condemned by the alpha and omega, is composed of the wishy -washy, the lukewarm,neither accepting nor rejecting anything anymore, content merely to go whichever way the wind blows.Another church,Smyrna(2:8-11),is composed of those who are suffering greatly in these times, but manage to hold to their faith, even though others persecute them. They are already suffering martyrdom for their beliefs because of the sins of others in their midst: ” the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synogogue of Satan”(2:9). The alpha and omega reassures the faithful of Smyrna: Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer….. be thou faithful unto death,and I will give thee a crown of life(2:10).
However, only one city,Philadelphia(3:7-13), has fully satisfied God. The people their have never deserted their faith; nor have they yielded to dissolution. They have seen the new way opening before them and have already started to make a transition to the new. Therefore,alone among the cities,their people will not suffer and will not be exposed to temptation.
( Thats why William Penn named the American city Philadelphia)
Just as with the people of Philadelphia,some few have already seen the future opening up before them….”I have set before thee an open door and no man can shut it. ” (3:8).( the crown chakra?)Those who are already stepping into this new state of consciousness NEED NOT FEAR, the alpha and omega tells them , so too, for us. John’s revelation is truly addressed to people with issues just like ours; he understands us! His revelation can serve as a teaching device to help us in this transitional period.
Kinda cool huh.
